Since the establishment of the R&D Center in 2010, changes started to happen at Petlas Factory.
It is now producing tires according to its own know how. From that date up till now, Petlas has developed its own test laboratory, indoor and outdoor testing facilities. As a result, Petlas has introduced Turkey’s first Run Flat and all steel OTR tires.
From 2015 till 2016 a modern tire testing driving track was built to carry out necessary tests compatible with required ECE Regulation 117 and Subjective Vehicle-Tire Adoption tests. With the new track, Petlas measures rolling noise levels and wet grip indexes quite accurately. These test opportunities are quite important for the carrying out of tire production. In doing so, internal test opportunities and product development processes became faster to finalize and easier to label them.
Test devices used by Petlas are accredited in terms of Vehicle Certification Agency, a subsidiary to England Ministry of Transport, regulations and all devices meet the technical competence requirements of FMVSS 139 and FMVSS 119 standards, also ECE R30, ECE R54, ECE R106, ECE R109 and ECE 117 regulations. Outdoor tests are performed with vehicles and special devices.
During outdoor tests, tires competences are examined with European Union ECE 117 regulation and tests such as wet grip index measurement, noise level etc. are performed.
Petlas will increasingly keep continue its R&D investments upcoming days, because Petlas is aware of the importance of following and developing new tire technologies to offer safe and comfortable driving to its customers.
There are two types of tire tests: Objective and subjective tests. During the objective test a sample tire is taken at random and is examined by electronic devices. Objective test sub groups are indoor objective tests and outdoor objective tests. During indoor objective tests dynamic and static tests performed. Regarding to static tests dimensional and digital footprint pressure dispersion measurements, breaking energy, bead unseating resistance force, water burst and electrical resistance tests are performed. On the other side related to dynamic tests rolling resistance force, high speed and endurance performance tests are carried out.
